HK vs Singapore?
No clear cut and definitive answer of which one is more attractive
• Is a holding structure really necessary?
• Is a regional HQ for Asia Pacific necessary?
• Can economic substance be created in HK or Singapore to take
advantages of the double taxation agreements?
• Is there a double taxation between HK/Singapore and the
respective FDI country?
• Where do you wish to have your operational office?
• Are you seconding employees? What are the visa requirements?
